I think it's atually fairly easy to achieve, but also very easy to get things wrong and get into a mess and/or get confused.

This really needs a HowTo and/or a sticky thread that walks through the process and warns of the stuff to ignore.
I wonder if your set-up post and the video(s) put together in one post and pinned would be enough.
I have to say I find it puxxling that PGM themselves haven't affressed this some time ago.

It's telling that PGM don't have that and that if one goes to the "dare to compare" page, they compare RealTracks with a number of older and mostly discontinued synths, including ForteDXi, which has a link to a now non-existent PGM web page of their own. Of course they're selling RTs here, so a comparatively good, later generation, synth and soundfont may be giving the wrong message for them.
